Nicole Kidman’s new film *Babygirl* is stirring up conversation, especially because of its steamy scenes with younger actor Harris Dickinson. The movie features Kidman as a CEO who has a sultry affair with her much younger intern.

The preview of their intimate pool scene has led to a lot of buzz online. Fans are making lighthearted comments about Kidman’s recent trend of playing roles with younger men, joking about her marriage to Keith Urban.

One fan humorously noted, “I’m seeing a trend in Kidman’s movies — affairs with younger men. Hope Keith Urban is cool with it!”

Another fan pointed out, “Old women with young guys is the latest trend in Hollywood,” while others discussed how such roles might be empowering for older women and exciting for younger men.

Some comments were more critical, with one person questioning, “It’s interesting that she still takes on these roles at almost 60.” Another speculated about Kidman’s personal life, asking, “Maybe Keith Urban is into it?”

Not everyone had a negative take on Nicole Kidman’s scenes in *Babygirl*. Some fans were enthusiastic, with one exclaiming, “Omg Steamy!!!!” Another fan showed admiration for Kidman, writing, “I love Nicole too much! Best actress out there!”

However, some fans felt the trend of Kidman being paired with younger men was a bit awkward, noting, “The fact that she is paired with all young guys lately is a bit cringey! 🙃” They also recalled her previous roles, with one fan hoping, “Please no awkward scenes like the ones with Zac Efron!” referring to Kidman’s earlier film *A Family Affair*, where her chemistry with Efron was both surprising and amusing.

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, the 57-year-old Kidman discussed her role in *Babygirl*. She described it as the most exposing role she has ever taken on, saying, “I’ve made some films that are pretty exposing, but not like this.” Despite her extensive career, Kidman acknowledged that *Babygirl* was notable for its raw intensity.

Interestingly, Kidman revealed she hasn’t seen the film yet and is unsure if she will attend the premiere at the Venice International Film Festival. She admitted she might not have the courage to watch it in a theater full of people.
